Nice to meet you!
Hi! I'm Natalia, your instructor. Dancing has been my passion for 21 years, and I've been teaching for the past 5. I absolutely love what I do and feel called to share this gift with the world.
I was born and raised in Florida, but am bilingual thanks to my Colombian descent. My dance journey started with ballet and I continued with tap, jazz, lyrical, musical theater, and more until I found shuffling.
I started shuffling in 2020, while I was pursuing my degree in Industrial Systems Engineering. I always thought that dance was just a way to move your body, but shuffling taught me that dance is way more than that. Shuffling is a feeling, a vibe, a community, a state of mind, something that changed my life for the better, and I can’t wait for it to do the same to you!
After graduating, I continued working my corporate job, but I never let go of shuffling. It brings me so much joy and has always been something I wanted to grow and share with others. That’s the inspiration behind this course.
It's an honor to lead you through this journey, and I can't wait for you to get started. I hope you see the best results and fall in love with shuffling just as I did.
